Fuck all.

Numbers are rising massively and I personally can't afford any time off work if I catch it. Just because the chances of me being hospitalised are decreased hugely isn't motivation enough for me to change my behaviours from the last 18 months.

There's no good reason for it to be "Freedom Day" other than Johnson trying to score some feelgood points, so I remain cynical and careful.

It has to be done at some point and rather than having it in law (mask wearing, social distancing etc.) the onus is on personal responsibility. And calling it 'Freedom Day' is more media over-hyping than actuality.

The virus isn't going anywhere (and we are already in a third wave) and we have to live with it like we live with influenza (and a multitude of other virii and bacterial infections).

And it's not about how many cases there are but about hospitilisations - which are not following the trend of the second wave.

I think most people realise that the government have got this wrong and are just continuing with the precautions.

Having said that, when you come out of roadworks on the motoway, it takes quite a lot of people a couple of miles to realise the restrictions are gone and get back up to speed, I guess a couple of days will show the reality.

You’re quite right. We all (particularly singles who’ve had very little human, physical or social contact in the last 16 months) should be willing to give up any close human contact until covid is completely eradicated - which will probably be never!

Honestly - I think everyone (with a brain) will have to do a personal risk assessment - and one for those around them - and act accordingly.

I rarely use public transport - but when I do I’ll wear a mask as I could be surrounded by vulnerable people - the same at a supermarket.

However - as a healthy ‘double jabbed’ person I’ll be attending a club this weekend. My assumption, rightly or wrongly, is that the very vulnerable would have decided to avoid them for now.

Roughly translated - I will protect others where possible - whilst starting to live my own life again.

I believe many others will do the same.
